Val - good news - prednisone

[Guest guest]

I switched from Isocort 4-4-3-2 to Prednisone 5mg am, 2.5mg noon,

1.25mg late afternoon on Wednesday this week. My blood sugars have

stabilized since starting the prednisone. Last weekend when I found I

was hypoglycemic I was as low as 59, since starting the prednisone my

lows have been in the 70s. I increased my Armour to 2.5grains from 2

grains 3 weeks ago.

I am encouraged with the results I seen this week - I even got on my

rowing machine (slow pace) x 15 minutes today without bottoming out my

blood sugar...

I am tempted to up the Armour this week another 1/4 grain (my temps

still are below normal) - what do you think?

I think you need to slow things down. You are on ALOT of steroids with

8.25 mg pred daily. That equals 33mg of HC. I would try to lower that

dose a bit.
